Known for handling complex and high-stakes matters, we offer strategic advice and build tailored defence strategies. We have a strong track record representing clients before all public authorities, including the police, prosecutors’ offices, and courts. Our experience and understanding of the legal landscape allow us to guide clients through sensitive proceedings with confidence.
We represent clients at every stage of the criminal process, from investigations by general and specialised prosecutors’ offices (such as DNA and DIICOT) through to preliminary chamber procedures, trials, and appeals. We also advise on preventive and precautionary measures.

Our white-collar crime expertise includes offences such as abuse of office, fraud, embezzlement, fraudulent management, bribery, influence peddling, tax evasion, money laundering, and cybercrime. We also advise on regulatory breaches involving workplace safety, commercial espionage, smuggling, and other misconduct connected to professional or business activities.
We support clients in identifying and managing potential criminal risks through internal investigations and legal due diligence. We assess exposure, ensure compliance with legal standards, and recommend practical steps to reinforce organisational integrity.
